1、Designation:A998/A998M12Standard Practice forStructural Design of Reinforcements for Fittings inFactoryMade Corrugated Steel Pipe for Sewers and OtherApplications1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A998/A998M;the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof orig
2、inal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This practice covers the structural design of reinforce-ment for fitt
3、ings in factory-made,round corrugated steel pipe,conforming to Specifications A760/A760M or A762/A762M,for use as storm and sanitary sewers and other buried applica-tions.This practice is for fittings on pipe installed in a trenchor embankment and subjected to earth loads and live loads.Itmust be re
4、cognized that a buried corrugated pipe is a compositestructure made up of the steel ring and the soil envelope,andboth elements play a vital part.Both main and branch pipeshall be designed in accordance with Practice A796/A796Mand installed in accordance with Practice A798/A798M.1.2 This practice co
5、vers the structural design of reinforce-ment for fittings such as those for branch pipes.Refer toSection 5 for design limitations.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish a
6、ppro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.4 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsshall be regarded separately as standard.The values stated ineach system are not exact equivalents;therefore,each systemmust be
7、used independently of the other,without combiningvalues in any way.SI units are shown in brackets in the text forclarity,but they are the applicable values when the design is tobe performed using SI units.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2A36/A36M Specification for Carbon Structural SteelA15
